First Sentence
The temptation and the tendency to judge Shakespearean film in terms of some sort of theatrical achievement stems partly from that critical tendency to impose old criteria on new artistic fields, partly from the appearance on the screen of established stage actors in Shakespearean roles and partly from a persistent belief - which intelligent criticism has done little to shift - that cinema is really 'canned' and transportable theatre.
